Under the Influence, Brooklyn 2017

Under the Influence - Commissioned by BRIC (2017)

Under the Influence is a site-specific performance and installation that is part of an ongoing series by Juan Miguel Marin. For this iteration, Marin has pre-recorded Brooklyn soundscapes and conversations. These recordings will act as a departing point for the artist, who will paint the mural while listening and meditating on the sounds. The end result is a spontaneous visual representation of the Brooklyn soundscape, imbued with the energy and diversity of the city. The soundtracks used by the artist will be available for visitors to listen to while viewing the work.
